Had a mig for about 10 years and decided to invest in a arc last year. Due to weather and other commitments, I only started using it about 3 weeks ago.
I have a thermal arc 175 TE and I am using Bohler 3.2mm 6013s.
I have the Welder set to 115-120, 0 arc force, to do this.
Started at the bottom and worked my way up.
I am using a sif lite welding mask and can't see the work piece, so my first couple of rows were not straight and overlapped.
Anything I should be doing differently?
I want to have a go at 7018 rods at some point, what would you recommend brand and size wise?
Cheers
